#CassandraSays – East London drag creature Cassandra gives us the lowdown on this week’s queer alternative events

Oh, my! Partying and hedonism are never-ending stories now I’ve taken over Julia’s column and she has inducted me into her Diyonisian underworld!

Oh the night is my world, city lights, painted girl……. 


Friday 21st February

The great surrealist Emma Kroeger aka Yoko Fomo gives us Club Tantrum volume 2 at Dalston Superstore — I myself am feeling in a rather punky mood so might head down for a scream and shout! A night recommended for those with mad minds and impetuous souls! Upstairs are angels with dirty faces: Chakah khan’t, Natalie sandie,  Jeanie Crystal and Kuntessa. Downstairs in hell, Super Drama gives us the sonic theatrics with an all night DJ set, and José Acid aka Paraíso gives us acid reflux inducing performance!! 9pm – 3am, 117 Kingsland High Street, E8 2PB.

Cookie Jar: Dommes and Divas returns at the Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club. If you are feeling femme and sadistic I’d say Faster PUSSYCAT; Kill, Kill !! Get your whips and pleasers down there  to chastise any meaty men in sight! 9:30pm – 3am, 42-46 Pollard Row, Bethnal Green E26.


Saturday 22nd February

If you are looking for a demure evening, get your bums down to see Poppers At The Piano by delectable Vanity Von Glow. I imagine she will begin by playing and singing Celine Dion but then the new formula of modern poppers will cause her retinal damage and the floating black spots you get on your eyes will interfere with what she sees on the sheet music and she’ll start playing and yelling like Yoko Ono! Now there’s an idea for a set! 8pm – 10pm, The Grand, 21-25 St John’s Hill, SW11 1TT.


CASSANDRA’S SPECIAL CURIOSITIES

Hun Party at The Karaoke Hole by Germany sausage queen Lilly Ceaborna looks like the ultimate avant garde hen party! Thursday 20th February, 95 Kingsland High Street, E8 2PB.
